Measurement of the ionization yield of nuclear recoils in liquid argon using a two-phase detector with electroluminescence gap
A measurement of ionization yields in noble-gas liquids is relevant to the energy calibration of nuclear recoil detectors for darkmatter search and coherent neutrino-nucleus scattering experiments. In this work we further study the ionization yield of nuclear recoils in liquid Ar, using a two-phase detector with an electroluminescence gap and DD neutron generator. The ionization yields of nucle...
متن کاملThe scintillation and ionization yield of liquid xenon for nuclear recoils
XENON10 is an experiment designed to directly detect particle dark matter. It is a dual phase (liquid/gas) xenon time-projection chamber with 3D position imaging. Particle interactions generate a primary scintillation signal (S1) and ionization signal (S2), which are both functions of the deposited recoil energy and the incident particle type. We present a new precision measurement of the relat...
متن کاملMeasurement of the response of heat-and-ionization germanium detectors to nuclear recoils
The heat quenching factor Q (the ratio of the heat signals produced by nuclear and electron recoils of equal energy) of the heat-and-ionization germanium bolometers used by the EDELWEISS collaboration has been measured. It is explained how this factor affects the energy scale and the effective quenching factor observed in calibrations with neutron sources. This effective quenching effect is fou...
متن کاملIonization of liquid argon by a particles
From an analysis of electron pulses in liquid argon produced by a particles the average energy required to form an ion pair is evaluated, assurmng JaEk’s theory of columnar recombination is valid. The mean value of 26.0 ev found in this way agrees well with the corresponding value of 26.4 ev for a particles m argon gas. Application of Jaffk’s theory to the liquid state is discussed, and from th...
متن کاملthe effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)
cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
